		<title>What are you people, on dope?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I&#8217;m watching Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
I was in the mood, because I spent the afternoon listening to 80&#8217;s glam rock bands while working.

		<title>Zombie cows.. from spaaaaace.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
So  was after me to post about the game, and I am somewhat appearances, that she beat me to posting. That said, her synopsis covers most of the bases, so I only have a few things to add.

There were originally supposed to be two combat encounters &#8211; zombies in the bar, and zombies in [...]

Potatoes are now properly hilled

There is now a length of wire holding the outlet hose on to my turbocharger (as opposed to it blowing halfway out every time I hit the throttle too hard)

		<title>Warmachine</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Liz and I grabbed the Warmachine MKII quickstart rules and gave it a go with some proxy miniatures. The basic mechanics are very simple &#8211; anyone who is used to allocating command points and standard movement/line of sight/etc. type rules will be used to it. The use of preprinted cards for each unit (they apparently [...]

		<description><![CDATA[
So, I find some house rules for 6mm combat for F.A.D. 4.0 on there (thanks to teh google), but apparently I can&#8217;t downloading without registering.. so I do, but then apparently I need to either upload something or pay money. WTF? Luckily, bugmenot had some logins which work.
Is me, or has the level of people [...]

		<title>We has a doggie</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
He&#8217;s such a good puppy &#8211; all he wants to do is be with people, play fetch, and splash in the water. We&#8217;ve got a dog house on order ($115, shipped), and already got him a 4&#8242; diameter pool to splash in. His daytime pen is about 50&#8242; x 200&#8242; or so. Happy doggie.

		<title>Addendum to UI post&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Yeah, so E16 has some window placement issues, E17 is slow, so I switched over to IceWM. Figured I&#8217;d give that a go.

		<title>All my life is a (UI) circle</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
In the beginning, I was on RedHat, and there was Gnome + Enlightenment.
Later, Gnome adopted Sawfish, but you had a choice. I still used Enlightenment.
Then I don&#8217;t exactly recall what happened. I think Enlightenment went away from Gnome, I tried several (IceWM, Fluxbox, etc.) finally settled on FVWM, which I used for several years.
Then Liz [...]

		<title>Fixed mah car&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The ABS light came on a couple weeks ago. It&#8217;s summer, so no rush. Hit it with the computer last night, got an &#8220;electrical fault in the right rear ABS sensor&#8221;. Pulled the wheel, checked the wire, looked fine. Figure it is a defective component. German Auto Parts is awesome and about 5 minutes from [...]

		<description><![CDATA[
So, aside from the past month which has been a bit crazy, I&#8217;ve been painting again&#8230;
The Chaos ships are painted dark green with a couple coats of black wash. The tanks are green and kind of a sand color, with appropriate highlights (treads, etc.) then black wash. The base is painted, and then after this [...]
